I had another...the third shoot trip with Mike to Fuerteventura where we visited in November. The villa we did the shoot was brilliant as always and had a great shoot at the dune, on the beach, at the lava area. Mike got a variety of ideas and stuff to shoot with and great eyes of photographer. Highly highly recommended to everybody!!!

My second shoot with Mike was just as excellent and enjoyable as the first. We had discussed various ideas beforehand and were able to fulfill them and come up with more looks thanks to Mike's beautiful props. Throughout the shoot, Mike was very friendly, polite, professional, punctual, artistic and open to ideas. He is one of the nicest gentlemen I know, and I would recommend him to any model. The pictures he provides are gorgeous, and he edits them in the briefest delays. Thank you, Mike!

I had a brilliant shoot trip to Fuertventura with Mike. The villa he booked for us staying and the shoot was gorgeous with 4 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms(one of them got jacuzzi ), large swimming pool in a spacious garden, huge staircase, beautiful dining table and sitting area.....we used the whole villa for the shoot as they were very photogenic!!! Mike got creative ideas as always and very enthusiastic so we kept shooting every single day although he got a cold and not feeling very well....sorry and thank you for Mike!

Mike is very friendly, professional gentleman with various creative ideas, fun to work with. I cannot recommend him high enough!

I cannot wait to see the result from the shoot.

Thank you very much for the brilliant shoot trip!!!

My shoot with Mike at his home studio yesterday was excellent, as had been his communication beforehand. He kindly picked me at the nearby station, and we discussed the different options and ideas before setting to work. Our shoot was diverse, relaxed, fun and very fruitful, and throughout our collaboration, Mike remained immensely professional, creative, open to different ideas and always reliable. Time flew by very quickly, and I'm already impatient to schedule another shoot, hopefully in November. This was also the first time I attempted artistic nude, and I'm very happy with the results and grateful for Mike's collaboration, which put me at ease at once. I highly recommend Mike and thank him for this great shoot.

Mike and I met at a Guild of Erotic Artists meeting/group shoot last weekend. He was very friendly, we had brief opportunities to chat and I saw some of his work in his books, which was lovely. We shot aerial hoop as a group shoot then shot together in the garden of the venue, he was great to work with, a very pleasant gent indeed. I would be very glad to shoot with him again and would recommend him to others :)

Had a terrific second shoot with Mike (Photofrenetic) at the Guild of Erotic Artists' summer meeting. He took some beautiful images of Em Theresa on her aerial hoop, and then I joined in at the end to work in tandem with her to create some interconnected shapes. The images he showed me on the back of his camera looked lovely. We then shot again later in Len Giford's unique sculpture garden, with Mike giving me some direction for intertwinings with the statues (whilst kindly removing some of the more prickly branches). I hope we will work together again.

Highly recommended. :)

Had a great first shoot today with Mike (Photofrenetic) at his home studio. Mike was happy to be adaptable and create the images I wanted and liked, and this was much appreciated. We worked on digital body projections, which are just one area he photographs exceptionally well. The shoot was fun and laidback. He was friendly, professional and a pleasure to work with. Looking forward to another shoot in the future. x

I have worked with Mike several times for last 7 years and this time I had a brilliant shoot holiday at Lanzarote with Mike. Everything had organized in a very professional way including the beautiful and comfortable villa where we stayed in and shot at, lots of locations, outfits, props, etc...everything! Mike has great photographer's eyes, various ideas for the shoot and fun to work with. He is also very thoughtful, creative and a true gentleman. We had a great shoot and also enjoyable holiday with lots of sightseeing, delicious food and relaxing time in the beautiful sunshine. I thoroughly enjoy the time there in Lanzarote. I cannot wait to see the result from the shoot.

Highly highly recommended!!!

Looking forward to working with you again.

Thank you very much for the great shoot!!!

Mike is lovely! Having shot with him both at his home and on an extended location trip, I would not hesitate to recommend him, or to work with him again myself. He's courteous, fun, thoughtful, creative, professional and just generally super. Thanks Mike!

Had a wonderful shoot with Mike at my studio day at Big Shot Studio. Mike was professional at all times, friendly, made sure I was comfortable and generally a nice guy to be around.

In a short space of time we got through quite a few sets. Whilst shooting Mike came up with imaginative ideas but also allowed me to have an input into the shoot and pose freely.

We had a lot of fun and I loved that Mike likes props as much as I do:).

From what I have seen the results are excellent. I do hope we are able to shoot again. Highly recommended. Thank you:).

Big Shot Studio

Mike attended our Anna Rose Studio Day and we found him to be a very pleasant and decent fellow. He was extremely respectful and considerate of the model as well as professional in his communication with her. Mike was also respectful of all the studio equipment. It was a pleasure to have him here and also a pleasure to observe him work. Mike is a true professional photographer who knows his stuff, in fact we would be happy to have him here running a workshop. His years of experience are impressive with a portfolio containing a great deal of published work. Whether you are a model, a business or anybody who wants to work with a great photographer, Mike is definitely your man. Highly Recommended!!!

I had a great time shooting with Mike two days ago. He made me relax and showed me some of his worked before getting started, which helped figure out how to pose and what to expect from the shoot (we mainly did body projection). He is very patient and always willing to experiment, I felt like there was a good atmosphere and exchange of ideas between the two of us. I would be definitely up for another another shoot and recommend him to any model willing to try something unusual.

I have shot with Mike on numerous occasions, and it's always a great pleasure.

He is such a lovely guy, friendly, easy going and makes you feel totally relaxed and comfortable in his company.

But he is also a very talented, creative and imaginative photographer, with so many ideas that one shoot is never enough.

I would absolutely recommend shooting with him, and hope to do so again soon.

I had several shoots with Mike over last 6 years. He is always professional, creative with hundreds of new ideas, fun to work with and reliable. Pre-shoot communication is brilliant and it reflect the great result!!! He spends unlimited time to achieve the great result before, during and after the shoot with professional eyes. I cannot recommend him high enough and looking forward to the next shoot.

ERosanne

I have worked with Mike many times over the years, creating various different styles of shoot. He has a very creative eye, as well as the technical expertise to pull off interesting ideas, and is a nice guy to work with, too. We really must arrange another shoot some time soon! Pleasure working with you, Mike, let's make it happen again in the not too distant future!

Kira Krueger

I shot with Mike way back in 2007, what a legend! I travelled over from Manchester for the day and we shot so many different alt sets, smoking fetish, vampire, military. It was all great fun and I felt completely at ease. Some of the shots were also published in the Satanic Sluts Blood and (dis)Honour book. Thanks again Mike, glad to see you're still shooting! Highly recommended, Kira x
